Comments on: The Pit of Despair http://www.char-lyn.com/2008/02/10/the-pit-of-despair/ Life with three kids, five acres, a dog and only two, semi-sane adults.

I am glad that he is a pretty relaxed little guy. Now, that I have figured out how to put photos up I hope to do it more. It is a small room and both girls are in there. I want to get them into a larger room- we have one but it is being used as a "junk" room. It is a misnomer because the stuff in there is not junk. So it's a matter of having someplace to put the stuff that is in there now. It's a whole domino effect. Yes, Lindsey, you and I will BOTH have a talk with that person. It must be contagious. Grace at least has a good example to learn better habits from- I am hopeless at maintenance. KN- it is overwhelming- it’s a whole new life now. I am glad that he is a pretty relaxed little guy.

I am pretty sure they learned to keep their rooms this way from the same person. And when I find that person I'll have a serious talk with them and let them know NOT to talk to her again! lol.

No, seriously, he has fussy moments and lots of hiccups and really hates nakedland, but if he had colic or reflux or something, we'd be a lot worse off. I love seeing photos, too -- of the Pixie, primarily, but also a vision of our abode in just a short time! Plus, this looks and feels like progress, right? -- or else you wouldn't have posted it. :) Typing one-handed takes forever, btw.

Just kidding. We have this same problem with Sunshine too, she has a small room but it is only her! We go thru about once every 2-3 months and dejunk and tell her now SHE needs to keep it clean and she does for a while but before you know it it is back to chaos and she is overshelmed. He thing is too many crafty items!!!! Then the brothers get into it and make messes and it is all a loss for her.:( Thanks for sharing!!! I love seeing pics! Ya looks like MY room!!! Just kidding.

So I guess she comes by it naturally. Yep, same dog toes. I need to take it down. It seemed like such a good idea to put the doggie boarder at that level so the little baby could see it. Until the little baby grew up to be toddlers that pick at things. No she doesn't have lipstick on. I looked at the big picture to make sure. Just loverly lips. I remember your room….and mine.

That is what my room looked like until I was 16... or was it 32? Seems like I recall painting those dog toes on the wall :) Does she have lipstick on? I don’t see a problem here.
